Things That Need to be Invented (part II)

OK so we all know there's a MILLION China Buffets in the MSP area... so we need a website that rates them and talks about them and says what they have. Everyone knows that there are some AWESOME buffets, and some terrible ones... some have amazing cream cheese puffs, some have nasto crab rangoons... these are the things this fantastic webstie would discuss... greatest. idea. ever.
anyway, someone needs to get on that.

Things I Think Someone Should Invent

Things I Think Someone Should Invent, Volume 1:

1- A computer program that allows you to build a road trip. BUT it also lets you know of fun and interesting roadside attractions along your route. Things like the Biggest Ball of Twine, and those dinosaurs on Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure. This program should be free and part of Google Maps. Get on that Google! I’m waiting! (note: RoadsideAmerica.com has something like this, but it slow and clumsy and really unreliable… for instance one of the “attractions” is some creepy dude’s house… really internet? Really?)

2- The Pancake Taco. I can’t elaborate on this too much, because I don’t want cyber-thieves stealing my million-dollar ideas. But trust me, this one’s gold. Just a little sampling… two words (well, three, but one’s hyphenated…): deep-fried pancake. Yes.

3- A Smell Detector. Now, this one seems odd… odder than a taco-cake… but you see there’s this odor that frequents my house and I CANNOT figure out what it is… and it comes and goes… it’s so weird SO weird. If I had a detector I could find the source and, ideally, squash it. There’s gotta be something that can read the microbes in the air and at least tell me WHAT I’m smelling. I know I’ve seen something like that on CSI. I need to call Grissom and get him on it, I guess.

Well that’s all I have right now… my brain is tired. There will be MORE inventions… trust me. Meanwhile, observe, if you will, the word of the day:
